Answer to Question 1

Answer:4
Rationale: The mother from the cohabitating informal stepfamily does not have a husband;the nurse should be asking about the child's father.In the traditional nuclear family,the traditional extended family,and the two-income nuclear family, the child's father is the same person as the mother's husband.

Answer to Question 2

Answer:2
Rationale: An extended family contains a parent or a couple who share the house with their children and another adult relative. A binuclear family includes the divorced parents who have joint custody of their biologic children,while the children alternate spending varying amounts of time in the home of each parent. A gay or lesbian family is comprised of two same-sex domestic partners;they may or may not have children. The traditional nuclear family consists of an employed provider parent,a homemaking parent,and the biologic children of this union.
